What is recorded here

Coity Castle is a ruined Norman stronghold in Bridgend, Wales, built by Sir Payn "the Demon" de Turberville in the 12th century. Its three-storey stone keep rose above a ringwork to control local routes, while later Gamage owners transformed the interior into a comfortable residence with a grand spiral stair and private chambers. Today the broken walls and octagonal pier remain beside the parish church, preserving the bold shape of a house that outlived its conquerors.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Coity Castle as Castle from the Medieval; Post Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Coity Castle was built in the 13th century by the de Briouze family and later held by the Gamage family, playing a strategic role in the Welsh Marches. It is remembered for its historical significance in medieval Welsh and English conflicts.
